Cleaning Cnimneys.

A simple ahd eifectual way to clean ont
chimneys, and also to remove clinkers
from stoves and furnace CRATES, is to burn
a piece of zinc about the size Of ones
hand. The SCOT in the chimney is con-
serted into fine white ashes, which rise
and are carried off like smoke. What
chemical action takes place in case ofihe
clinkers we do not explain, but can testi-
fy from experience as 10 their thorough
removal by throwing small piece of
zinc on the fire-csmgrego egotionoIis.

THE STORY OF A CENT.

II bought stick Of candy,
II bought postsge-stamp,
IL helped 10 buy an orange,
Twas given to a tramp.
Il bought bakers biscuit.
Il bought china doll.
Thought paper windmill,
IL bought s pretty ball.
Ii bought a rosy apple.
II bought yellow pear,
1t tried TO buy a whistle,
But whistles were TOO dear.
Twas dropped in willie's nestegg,
With more than fifty more,
And when the egg was broken
They came TO sixtv-four.
There sat upon the doorstep
A thinker. thinking hard,
While counting DER his riches,
A COW came in the yard
He started up in terror.
That cent rolled far away,
And fell into the cistern,
And there it lies to-day.

A Bowery Tragedy.


Damon Blumenthal and Pyfhias
Rosenburg were intimate friends and
clerks in Bowery \. " shoe store.
Like mucilage, they stuck to each other
in prosperity and adversity. Whoever
looks for a friend without imperfections
viii never find what he seeks. Damon
and Pythias are no longer friends.
In this quarrel, as in many other nota-
BILE quarreIs, woman was at the bottom
OF il. She was a remarkably handsome
woman, who came in with the intention
Of purchasing pair of shoes. 1fshe had
been an old woman or boy, their move
ments would have been as slow as that Of
an Alaskan glacier, which moves at the
speed of an inch and half year. As
il was, they rushed at her, smiling sweet
Iy as they rushed.
Both of them wanted to assist her in
trying on the shoes, but as she had only
one pair OF feet, she smiled on Damon
Blumenthal, where upon shade of vex-
alton passed over the fineiy-chiselled
features Of Pythias Rosenburg as he said,
in voice that seemed TO need oiling:
"N,sther Plumenthal, win wait dot
lady myseluf on"
"Oggscuse me Misther Rosenburg, |
believe knows my pishness mitout your
advice retorted Damon Blumenthal,
getting red around the roots of his hair.
BY shiminy grashus, if somebody
make me vonce mad already, ! mash
him dot head on a couple of dimes twice
ven he vas mine own vader," remarked
Rosenburg, paving around, calling for
blood
"You tam shackanapes," responded
Blumenthal, pounding on the counter
and dancing up and down. You bet
ter runned away pefore | get me crazy
madr
The fair customer fed, while Damon
and Pythias became closer and more con-
fidential than ever.
All of sudden Blumenthal came
down with the force of man who trips
at the top of the stairs and touches the
nome base in the cellar Like the de-
positor in saving bank, he lost his
balance , Rosenburg had tripped him
up. Before he could get up Rosenburg
got on top of him, and bumped his head
on the floor, beating tattoo like that of
a mules hind legs on the ribs Of the
hired man. Like King David and other
poteutates, be sat on the thrown.
Mr.. SOLEMN Isaacs, the genial rroprie-
tor, remembering that
Those who in quarrels inierpose
on must wipe bloody nose.
did not interfere.
A Gentleman by the name ofo'Rafieriy
did interfere, and put an end to the
festivities.
The result up to date are: Two shoe
clerks out of position, after paying $40
each to the police judge, not so much for
publications as a guarantee of good faith
Their employer, Mr. isaacs, refused to
take back the ex-bosom friends, although
he had managed to sell the policeman
who made the arrest pair of shoes, 9TH
er persons who had rushed into the store,
had carried off numerous costly pairs of
shoes, all Of which were deducted from
the wages of the gladiators when they
were paid off and bounced
Perhaps the saddest feature of the case
was the remark of the would-be funny
police justice, who said that the gladia-
tors had probably been drinking great
deal of beer, to put them 50 much at
lager-heads.

Hardy Breeds for Hogs.

Complaint is sometimes made that the
inner bred breeds of pigs are less hardy
either against cold.or i'll usage than the
coarser bnilt kinds 1t is quite true that
this is the fact, but il is no valid objection.
No farmer has a right 10 expect the COM
bination of incompatible qualities in the
same animal. The Wild hog is undoubt-
edly most hardy, because receiving no
care ali that are not the hardest are
killed off very early But he is good for
nothing except in the wild state, to which
he is adapted The skillful breeder has
developed an opposite set of qualities,
early maturity and tendency TO fatten
easily. He has done this by taking from
the pig for many generations all trouble
or care about his shelter or subsistence
The result is breed to which good shell
ter and plenty of feed at all times are es-
pecially necessary, and without which
they may not thrive 50 well as those hogs
less carefully bred.
